Pilsen: Slightly less expensive than my neighborhood now. Take 18th street to the expressway.
Buckingham Fountain: The show begins on every hour: a 150 feet foot geyser of water. At night it’s choreographed with music. The fountain began operating in 1927. Great for photos and misting.
Blues Fest: The booths are more interesting than the stage performances. Great for people watching: found out what a blues hippy looks like. I took a photo as the accordion player with the chicken on my head from Maxwell Street Market. Here is the original photo.
The bean: A magnet for the women in the red hats group.
